You’re forgetting FLOSS. That wisdom only applies when the product is made for financial incentive and is free, and not always then either.

Be careful with your sources. Laced drugs are dangerous. But I’m with you.

She was poisonous, you see.

Not all of them, but an uncannily high number.

I recommend FOSS alternatives to Adobe’s garbage. GIMP for a photoshop alternative. Krita for digital art. Inkscape for an Illustrator alternative. Ruffle for the Flash Player Standalone Client. So on and so forth.

Mint is based on Ubuntu.

Use Debian if you want a system like Ubuntu that isn’t full of Canonical’s corporate shit. Ubuntu is based on Debian.

Communion is not ritualized cannibalism.

I would personally rather die than be mutilated again.

Mutilation (including castration) is never okay. Prisons exist for criminals—committing a crime against humanity in retaliation instead is not okay. Also, you can’t un-mutilate someone (in most cases), and the law makes mistakes.

Good. Anyone foolish enough to write code with a slop machine produces only slop. That garbage should’ve been deleted anyway.

That’s entirely ignoring the fact that this person didn’t have any backups elsewhere.

If you can’t think, you can’t code.

Thanks for the link.

I would note that this is not necessarily true. When referring to sex rather than gender, it is common—and when used in the context “male or female,” etc. It’s not an evil word—some people just misuse it. It is similar to “it” which is not a bad word in any way, but if you call someone “it” they will likely be offended.

Use of the word female does not indicate misogyny. Deliberate objectification of women through such a consistent word choice is different.
